I really liked this video. I'm a novice digital artist and it was fascinating watching your process. I didn't go to art school and took very few art courses in school. I can't really draw freehand very well at all. Hearing you explain how you don't start out "the right way" with the shapes and building up the drawing was enlightening for me because I think like you do (sans the talent to get an image from my brain to my 'canvas'). I don't believe it's wrong though, to draw like you do. I think it's wrong to say that there's only one way to do something, or to say particularly in regards to art, that there's a wrong way. It's only wrong if it's not getting you the results you want in your finished work and anything that does work is "your way". Breaking away from tradition and close minded curriculum and moving forward in this knowledge sharing collaboration of minds from all over the world is just epic to me! Thanks for sharing!

So thankyou!

[@baddaysbasil5376]

Just throwing this out there for education's sake, since you mentioned it : some teachers will teach you that the "proper" way to draw figures is to rough in torso first, then legs, then arms, and finish with the head. This is because the torso exists in space until it is anchored to the ground by the legs, which must adopt certain positions to do so -- they are the most "locked in" body part because of their assumed attachment to the ground. After that, the arms can flow independently within their own constraints from the torso, then the head can swivel around after all that other stuff is established. I learned this mostly by reading Burne Hogarth's books, but I think it's sort of a standard way to do it. But this all goes out the window, in a way, when you have access to the convenience of digital art and the adjustments it allows after the fact. It's one of those things that digital art frees you up to do incorrectly, which is nice. :)

[@novaexplosion8257]

It's just helpful for some people's wiring to see the dimensional boundaries they're trying to achieve in their final result. Sometimes you just need to go what's wrong with this image? why is it not quite right? Oh yeah it needs to be more rounded out here or more "square" here. Your mind may not need that step most of the time because it's built right in seamlessly.

I'm just starting to learn how to "properly" draw the human figure because, frankly, I'm just tired of not knowing and my art at 36 still looks like it did when I was 16 because I haven't evolved at all (which might have something to do with me basically not drawing for the past 10+ years).

next time you’re working on something in procreate, try using the layer mask option instead of making a new layer & filling in white! 😄 when you click on the current layer you’re working & and see all the options pop up, select the layer mask option. when you use the brush tool with black ink, it’ll erase or hide whatever you draw over, but if you ever decide you need that part back, just switch your pen to white & draw over the area again to get it back! i hope this makes sense lol but once you get in the habit of it, it’s super helpful! this video was super fun to watch another artists process, thanks for always sharing 🫶🏼

[@JauneLacouleur]

@TenHundred Here is a ninja tips to avoid the coloring on lineart layer issue. Create a clipping layer over your line art layer, fill it with black (or any color) and lock it (the clipped one), now you’re line art is safe. As a bonus side effect, it will allow you to redraw on your lineart layer without switching color. Just merge both layers at the end. (I use it in fresco, PS and procreate) 😊

Just FYI at 11:26 you're basically describing inventing layer masks but with extra steps. Also the layer mask has the added advantage of allowing a gradient of "disappearing" as well depending on how dark your brush is.

72 dpi is an old holdover from old monitors. Pixels are now smaller on screens, so 96 dpi is the bare minimum. If you have a large demo that uses phones and tablets, you need to 2x that as well (150 -180 dpi). 300 dpi is great for basic printing and clothing as silk screens for clothing don't print as high as paper printing. If you are using vector work, you can often send up to 600 dpi files for photo work, but that's overkill for drawn art. Don't forget to trap your colors under your black layers if you are doing a full CMYK print!

[@ellenanan]

Why do you need to trap colors under black layers for a CMYK print?

[@space.tel-e-grams]

@@ellenanan to eliminate the white halo in case the press falls out of register between colors.

[@mjen]

Slight clarification, ppi (screen/document pixels), which is what you're referring to is different than dpi (dots per inch, for print). If you're never going to set your work for print, you can put the dpi as 1 if you want to. A 1000x1000 document at 1 dpi is the same size pixel dimension as 1000x1000 300dpi. As I am now misquoting Dr. Seuss "A pixel is a pixel, no matter how small." This goes for about any screen size (aside from weird software black magic). But what is messed up is the scale/sizing/math font sizes use. They will scale in a physical size different than at 300dpi. Try it out in Photoshop (or Procreate), and see what 1200pt fonts look like at 1dpi vs 300dpi. 72dpi is one that scales the closest for numbers lining up for print.

[@beeldbuijs1003]

A tiny bit of color trapping / overlap is the safest way to go when are using more than one color, not just with CMYK on paper but just as well with silk screen etc. Although I must say that this is less and less common. Digital printers for small editions don't have this problem in the first place and modern, online offset printing services use digitally controlled presses that self-correct the positions of the layers If they do not match up perfectly.

I almost always start with eyes if it's a character and it's definitely not what anyone would teach but it makes sense to my brain because they are my most important feature. Doing tonal correction is far more convenient than the alpha lock and i can definitely see you using that in the future. You can also change the full layer colour via layer properties if i remember right. I also know clip studio has a select colour gamut which is super handy for selecting a colour on a layer (you can set for a range too).

[@Angryoyster]

I’m a little late so hopefully you don’t need this tip anymore. My art teacher used to say “there is no such thing as inspiration there is only dedication”. Basically she was trying to get across if you wait for inspiration or creativity to strike you will be in a drought state for most of your life. Every day at the start of class we spent 10 minutes brain dumping. Sometimes we had a prompt sometimes we didn’t, but for 10 straight minutes we had to sketch something to completion, sometimes we had a reference sometimes we didn’t. To this day I still do this I find it’s a great way to get my brain moving, and stop overthinking. When you only have 10 minutes to finish a sketch you can’t overthink it you just gotta go. You can’t dwell on if it’s perfect or if you need to adjust the sizing or lighting etc. I’ve found this has really helped me not obsess over perfection as much and just allow myself to be creative. My favourite way to do this is at the start of the year I go on Pinterest and look up simple easy drawing prompts, I then make a list and print them cut them out and put them in a jar or copy them all into a random generator. I try to get around 350 prompts for the year. I normally never get through them all but it’s nice knowing that I don’t have to worry about not having enough. You can either remove the prompt once you’ve completed it or keep it in there and force yourself to sketch something different if you get it again. I once got the same prompt 3 days in a row so it really made me flex my creativity. Good luck with the burn out it’s so frustrating sometimes when you feel no spark.

The alpha lock method for coloring can take awhile and it’s easy to miss sections, so I tend to prefer creating a layer directly above, color filling it with whatever color I want, then I set it as a clipping mask. If you don’t want that many layers, you can then just merge them. Be careful with merging though because sometimes it does weird things if you merge multiple layers at once and quickly.

[@leohuxtable439]

You can usually merge layers starting from the bottom one at a time. When there's several different blend modes merging them at once gets funky. I think it sometimes starts from the top for random reasons.

You can use alpha lock and then fill layer to fill the whole drawing layer with black rather than painting over the layer with a brush.

Awesome video! I really liked seeing the creative process behind the final piece! The only part I don't understand, is what is the point of making the original sketch in procreate specifially 300ppi, if you were planning on vectorizing it anyway? Doesnt that kind of defeat the purpose of using such a high pixel count in the first place? Or is there another reason that im missing?

[@thatstoryshow]

He mentioned that he's never sure if he's going to use the pencils or the inks in the final project. It also seems important to him to keep as much of the original art as possible (ie. drawing white over lines). Some artists go back and publish their sketches (Jim Lee for instance) and he would need full resolution. Just some thoughts.

[@TenHundred]

James pretty much hit the nail on the head. I want maximum flexibility for anything I create. There is pretty much no downside to making it 300dpi the whole way, except larger file size, and it gives me options to print even the pencil sketch later.

This is by far the best iPad artwork video I’ve seen on KZbin. Great stuff.. 👍

[@mank3y_]

This was an amazing insight into your process dude, I’ve been looking into starting to use procreate to help me mock up so many different projects. Really nice break down of the steps you take in your work, big up man thanks 🙏 🙂

[@kimosahbe]

An absolute blast of a video - as a former 269 resident - happy to see someone doing their thing like you in the mitten. This was a tremendous help to my personal journey in digital art. Lots of great help and it was a breeze to watch the full video - engaged entirely.

Thanks

[@TenHundred]

Thanks so much

[@jadoisready]

Appreciate this. A lot of artists inspire me, but you were the final push because with your channel i see what's possible. What i could have if i kept going. And I'm improving a lot! May even be creating a Literary Magazine for the printing company i work for if they decide to do one next year. Thanks, Peter.

Peter!Just got my new IPad Pro & U R a gifted instructor, articulate and thorough in presentation and content, POWERFUL now & Fan ,

[@loella2912]

This is the most powerful knowledge to learn as a beginner and I wanna thank you for teaching and literally talked about everything ❤ Your creativity are amazing, your skills and strokes are soo beautiful, I love everything about this video and I learned a lot from it! It was the best decision I‘ve ever made to straightaway watch this video, thank you so soo much!!

[@silverpurkat]

10:00. I was professionally trained artist in college but prefer the method that you are doing here. I guess it’s my old school style from days before computers and doing drawings in charcoal or pencil. yes I am that old 😮. My husband bought me an early Christmas gift by getting me the IPad Pro generation 6 because I mentioned about dusting off my art supplies and getting back to drawing. Not sure how far I will get with the Ipad but we will see. Thank you for this video! I am learning a lot about possibilities of selling my art in the future.

[@lulugregory3246]

I have never done digital drawing in my life and found this really interesting, thanks for the in-depth lesson! Sorry if this is a dumb noobie question but I am wondering why you don’t do the drawing in the vector programme initially so that you don’t have to do it all twice? (Haven’t finished the video yet so maybe you will mention that in a minute! 😊)

[@pizzabellies4852]

Just a guess, but as someone who does digital, I wonder if it may be easier to sketch without vector first. Vector is a lot more smooth and refined, so if your not sure where your lines/composition is or still putting it together, I can see it being a hassle to sketch that way.

[@thatstoryshow]

The sketching phase is where you make all your mistakes and frame out the image. Then the inks clean up that sketch. It's just part of the process.

[@TenHundred]

The looseness and pressure sensitive transparency of the peppermint pencil brush in procreate makes it easier to sketch things out and refine the image. The vector ink brushes behave very differently than the pencil brush and sketching with the hard black vector inks would just feel very wrong to me. It would be like doing a rough scribble sketch with a sharpie instead of a graphite pencil IRL

[@stelmarsky6778]

@@TenHundred Thanks man and just thank you so much for all the magic you share. You've put in so much effort learning stuff to be able to output your magic so BIG respect and love to you dude!

[@ianlumacad6672]

that's the reason I can't do vector sketches on my mobile phone .. can't handle the delay and shaky lines hahaha

[@vangiebro]

Bless you, I struggled for years learning the vector life and idea of the process to enjoy aged projects for later. Thank you for the video

[@HarryTBeck]

10:18 I used to draw characters on paper as a kid and as a teenager, so naturally my Parents got me countless books to try and help me improve my art… As I was also self taught! And literally EVERY art book I was given as a kid was trying to get me to draw like this, but I strictly only draw in black sharpies… Always have done and always will do😂😂😂 I would also just draw my characters out how I wanted them to look in the final drawings🤷🏻‍♂️😂 My dad used to do a bunchhhhhhh of oil painting too, so he absolutely HATED how I’d draw, and also how I would only draw with black sharpie too lmfaoooo, I just cbfa drawing essentially the same thing multiple times just to rub it out you know..?🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m not able to really draw anything anymore though due to my disability worsening unfortunately… I definitely miss it I won’t lie. I only ever drew characters, never any backgrounds or anything like that really, and they were never really anything special but I still enjoyed it at least, and that’s all that matters at the end of the day isn’t it??🤷🏻‍♂️

[@theadventuresofsolykos]

This was great to see the process flow and tips, thanks for sharing. Love the new design too!

[@momo-xh3bm]

Thank you TenHun❤ This whole process of ordering and vectorising is GEM!!!!! So thankful that you even specially name out the detailed clicks in your process as a professional manner. You’re the best! I’m going to send you mine T-shirt design once it is made! Thank you soooooo much as always a great inspiration

[@aydapadistudio]

Dang, you’re so generous for sharing your detailed workflow even your pencil setting! I would probably keep on rewatching this as I progress in my digital art journey. Thanks, 10hun!

[@devinkelly1881]

Excellent info and solid process techniques. Thank you! Illustrator also has global color adjustment, just double click swatch and check the global box. Then any adjustments to that swatch will change all instances. Helps to create different global swatch groups across multiple artboards for side by side experiments.

[@kemal6039]

Did anyone get the part where he explains "what" he wished he knew when he was starting digital art? All I got from this video is : get a better tablet, and some more stuff about "printing" the art.

[@deltahat880]

there's a few tips here and there but I dunno if he ever says what he wishes he knew.

[@alphanumericskeptic]

Wow! You have skills! Lots of skills!! That was funny when you mentioned coloring on the wrong layer (19:14)! And then mention having to hit undo like a fifty-bajillion times... totally relatable. Your communications skills are off the charts. Thank you so much for sharing all the data. Very much appreciated.

[@TheWeredude]

Drawing on the wrong layer is the literal worst.

[@ChrisFlorit]

Yo Ten Hun, if instead of Photoshop, you go for Illustrator... You can do two things faster... 1 selecting all same color layers at the same time... by going on the top menu SELECT > SAME > FILL COLOR.... with that you can do the same recoloring and choosing the pantone color there. Love your work man!! Cheers!

[@aushamatic]

I'm sure you know these but just in case you don't, figuring these out helped my workflow a little. 1.) You can create a masking layer to "erase" and/or reveal your work by switching between black (erase) and white (reveal) on your color palette. 2.) If you want to change the whole layer's color you can Alpha Lock, make sure the color you want is selected, and then fill layer. That way you don't have to manually color over the work. The learning curve was rough for me-I'm still clueless at times- so I thought I'd put this out there. But hey, if what you do works for you, forget what I said. 😂 Love your stuff!!

[@LadyAvondrood]

This is awesome! Thank you so much. I randomly stumbled upon your video and I just started watching while drawing. But it learned me so much already that I didn't know!! So much smart shortcuts and helpable ways of how to draw quicker or how to speed stuff up. Thank you for that. Keep up the good work!!

[@amiemarieart]

THANKYOU for the no-erase tip, as someone who is new to using procreate (I only use it for composition and final drawings etc) this is a total GAMECHANGER! thanks dude, I'm off to do some testing hehe

[@deea29deea]

or you can duplicate the original layer and hide it just in case

[@amiemarieart]

@@deea29deea oooo great idea too!

[@DominusFeles]

Masking is the method most people use for this purpose.

[@BeKay1211]

I’d recommend using the mask option instead - it does the exact same thing but it’s imo more usable because if you I.e. transform the layer or add something in between the two layers you dont have to worry about the extra masking layer

[@romangonzalez8717]

Very informative video, I am a digital artist that loves pencil drawing, and I use procreate but I had no idea about Adobe Fresco. This is a game changer for me because I always thought that Illustrator was the best for vector lines but Fresco vector brushes gives me the freedom of a pencil fluidity which is way more my style. Thanks for your video. It was very well organized and your art is amazing. Keep up the good work!

[@Seht_MNGA]

You could have skipped the Photoshop step be setting you colors in Illustrator by using the Magic Wand tool to select all objects with the same color. Then you could export it to print from there with all the specified crops and bleeds you need for printing.

[@DominusFeles]

[@kimdeuel]

This is the first video of yours I have seen and I enjoyed it. I dabble with digital art so I haven't upgraded my 3rd Gen Ipad pro 12.9 but I hope to someday when I start creating more seriously. My latest project was stickers based on my 7yo granddaughter's artwork and I made them just for her. I thought about a T-Shirt for her so she could show off her designs but didn't realize till now that I was limited to 15 layers! Thankfully I should be able to do her art in less, but good to keep in mind for future designs of my own. Good information here and loved the video. Def a thumbs up.

[@devotedbrand]

I want to be like Ten Hun when I grow up

[@JuThronee]

Started "drawing" last week and it is definitely inspiring to see your approach. Really impressive work and detail.

[@kyletwebster]

So many other great reasons to use Fresco: Paint Inside, Multicolor brushes, better Perspective Guides, Creative Cloud sync (never lose work), etc. - glad to see it’s part of your process. 😊

[@janekeleher3090]

why don't you just pick the screen up in front of your face for the recognition?

[@Ospiman2711]

true 🤣

[@laerkemsj]

Probably when filming it can cause continuity issues

[@bakedbeings]

He set it up in a specific place to film it, he creates videos as he works. Moving it creates continuity headaches that waste time later in the process.

[@crystalviolet4652]

It doesn’t always work in my experience, atleast on the iPad it works 50% of the time

[@CodyStricklin]

And he blurs his passcode like we can hack into his tablet 😂

[@jd7025]

I just love the way you work and your style ❤

[@oranalmagor4739]

It feels like half of the video is sponsored and a bit show-off. There's some good tips but it's hard to keep up and actually use most of the info for actual in my own sketches. that's cause he's running from point to point, and it is easy to get lost. The explanation of using the technique in every step needs to be more linear..

[@jeyfro]

na you just slow im a beginner at digital art and drawing in general and i was able to basically keep up and understand how to do everything he was explaining. at least on the pro create portion. everything else is new to me and something i needed like how to vector files.

[@fredericapanon207]

Have you tried playing the video at 0.75x speed? I find that it helps to slow things down if the content feels like it is go 27:00 ing by too fast.

[@ladyvu911]

Lol I'm not even a digital or sketch artist (though I do use Adobe for other creative projects), but this was just so enjoyable to watch and taught me so much. As soon as I was just a few minutes in, I was hooked

[@monirogue1570]

I'm starting my first digital art journey today with no previous experience or knowledge. I'm glad I stumbled upon this video you do such a great job demonstrating what you do and explaining your methods and I love that you're so freeform. I myself have always been someone who likes to do things like drawing my own way and you have inspired me to keep doing that. I know everyone has their own strategies I want to stay true to my desire to keep it light when piecing together my sketches as well. Thank you! I am starting on a Huion kamvas 16 and I won't deny I envy you being able to zoom in and out and moving your work around so easily, just because I'm fresh at this I wasn't prepared to throw top dollar at a device so I'm gonna start with what I have and hopefully work my way up to better technology down the line. I'll have to figure out how to map a couple buttons to zooming since I find the stylus zooming to be...janky. Thanks again for sharing you've actually really inspired me and given me a sense that this can actually lead me somewhere if I'm patient and diligent enough! Best to you

[@kurniahd4570]

you're so amazing artist and humble. thank you for the lesson today!
